Realignment of scalum – Entrepreneurial experience for founders and entrepreneurs

Following the successful sale of ementexx GmbH and Michael Scholz's departure from the management board there in spring 2025, scalum GmbH has strategically repositioned itself.

We accompany founders and entrepreneurs as business angels, entrepreneurs’ advisors, and sparring partners through all phases of company development. We focus on providing practical advice and support for growth and professionalization, including operational preparation for upcoming transactions, as well as actively accompanying startups in the transition from idea to marketable business model. Our focus is on the areas of SaaS, technology, banking, fintech, payments, cloud, AI, and aviation, where we bring relevant industry expertise and a strong network.

Building on many years of entrepreneurial experience, activities will be structured around the following core areas in the future:

• Advisory – Entrepreneurial consulting on equal footing, with a focus on growth, professionalization, and operational preparation for transactions
• Investments – Equity investments or other financing instruments with added value through experience and network
• Startup Development – Active support for young companies in the transition from idea to marketable business model

The focus is always on entrepreneurial added value—experience, capital, network, and the ability to turn opportunities into sustainable growth.

The realignment is also reflected in the newly designed website.
Clear structures, modern design, and precise language make it clear what scalum stands for:

• Business angel, entrepreneurs' advisor, and sparring partner as an overarching role
• Advisory, investments, and startup development as our core areas
• Practical added value for founders and entrepreneurs

The new website is not only intended to provide information, but also to encourage networking.

With this realignment, scalum GmbH is positioning itself for the future. As a business angel, entrepreneurs' advisor, and sparring partner, Michael Scholz and his team accompany founders and entrepreneurs on their journey from the initial idea to a successful transaction.
